Sylvia Stacked by Stepuchin

[user339870]

Level 18 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Scott Davies relayed that Jesse Sylvia was just eliminated in the following manner:

Sylvia shoved from middle position for about four big blinds, action folded to Frank Stepuchin in the small blind, and, chicken wing still in hand, he called in the dark to put Sylvia at risk. The big blind folded and the two players tabled their hands.

Jesse Sylvia:
Frank Stepuchin:

Sylvia was ahead and Stepuchin needed to improve in order to stack him. The board missed Sylvia entirely but Stepuchin paired his four to win the pot and send Sylvia to the payout desk.
